In a series of tweets, Rashid had on Sunday said, “People are saying that Jammu and Kashmir Police has no authority on law and order situation. They have been rendered powerless. Everything is in the hands of paramilitary forces. One SHOwas transferred on complaint of a CRPF man. SHOs carrying batons. Servicerevolvers can’t be seen on them.”

In another post, she wrote, “Armed forces are enteringhouses at night, picking up boys, ransacking houses, deliberately spillingrations on the floor, mixing oil with rice, etc.”
